   EVERYTHING is PROCESSED unless it comes fresh from the garden or in the PRODUCE department in the store.

   I always look at the ingredients list on a food before buying. The worst foods usually have a lot of ingredients on the label, and especially unhealthy ones. To name a few: high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated/partially hydrogenated oils, sucralose/splenda, sugar, aspartame, bleached enriched wheat flour (as opposed to “whole wheat”), monosodium glutamate, etc.

   If it is in a can or bottle, it is processed.

   ALL fast food and restaurant food is processed, with the exception of fresh-produce salad bars.

   Unless you buy the raw ingredients yourself and make your own meals, most of the food you buy otherwise is processed. At the very least, most foods have been sterilized for long shelf life. Most pre-packaged food contain some preservatives.
